[meetbot-devel] Small bug fix for MeetBot to achieve channel case insensitivity

We ran into this and at first it was completely puzzling. It would ignore
some of the people on meeting channels without discernible pattern.
After some printf debugging a friend pointed out the obvious though:
The Channel reported for people was either:
#AbcDef or #abcdef
They still were on the same channel, the supy bot code would see them just
fine, but MeetBot was thinking they were on different channels!

I'm not 100% sure if my fix is the right-way™ to fix this, but it works for
me. So here it is:

If nothing else, then it should at least make it clear what I mean and
enable someone with better knowledge of the code to fix this.

Cheers

Thomas
